At around 9:15 a.m. a car was broken into in front of the Times-Standard building. The vehicle’s passenger window, facing the street, was shattered but nothing was reported stolen from the car. The car belonged to Times-Standard office manager, Michelle Kagan who said she normally can see everything that goes on through her office window but that whoever broke into her car was unseen because he was on the side of the car that doesn’t face the office.

“Nothing was taken and luckily all of my valuable things were not in the front of my car,” Kagan said.

Kagan has since filed a police report with the Eureka Police Department. Officer Heyne with EPD said this kind of break in is more common than house burglaries because car windows are easy to break and that thieves usually look for bags or backpacks prior to the break in.

Any information on the person behind the burglary should be forwarded to EPD at (707) 441-4060.
